Rob Levine Appointed to Lead First Coast No More Homeless Pets

The First Coast No More Homeless Pets
(FCNMHP) Board of Directors has appointed Rob Levine to serve as the
organization’s new CEO, effective immediately. Levine has been the Chief
Development Officer for the Jacksonville-based animal welfare group since
September 2016.

Board Chair Martin Rees, in noting the
Board’s unanimous vote to support the selection, said, “Rob has been part of
our organization for almost three years and has a deep understanding of our
operations, our mission, and the important role that our team plays in the
community.” Rees added, “Rob’s had the opportunity to work side-by-side with
FCNMHP Founder Rick DuCharme so his appointment assures continuity and
continued growth.”

Levine, a Fernandina Beach resident,
brings significant and diverse experience to this role as both a senior
corporate executive and as the leader of a number of non-profit organizations.
He previously served as a regional CEO for the American Red Cross in South
Florida and Northern New England and was an executive with the National
Basketball Association for two decades, helping to build several domestic and
international business units.

“I am honored to have the opportunity
to lead the organization through its next phase of growth as we work to honor
all that has been accomplished by our Founder and so many other animal welfare
advocates,” Levine said. He added, “Every year our two hospitals see more than
100,000 dogs and cats, and it is a remarkable opportunity to build upon the
work of all of our team members as we help pets, and the people they love, each
and every day.”
